Bosley - From Earth

Music from Bosley is the kind everyone needs on their ipod.  You know, that kind of music that has you dancing, the songs where the lyrics, beats, and hooks can’t help but stick – and luckily, Bosley is offering songs for free on ReverbNation.

All the songs are great, but here are the ones I love (notice how I mention almost all of them?).

Recommendations/Highlights

• After a long day of paper pushing or wishing you were doing something creative rather than the mundane, Quit Work Make Music can make you quit everything or at least give you a reprieve from your crappy day.

Free Wired dropped on Tuesday and has been on pretty heavy rotation on my iPod because

a) New Music! (well…since the last time I bought an album a couple of weeks ago )

b) It’s a really fun album.

I’m writing this after reading (a few) one-star reviews on iTunes criticizing the partying and star-status subject matter that dominates the album.  And I’m saying “Isn’t that some of the best parts of the album?”

Ashley Tisdale's Guilty Pleasure

Ashley Tisdale’s Guilty Pleasure is not quite a guilty pleasure.  Just as with Unlove You from her previous album (Headstrong), the only real ballad Me Without You lends me to like her ballad choice, but wish it were sung by someone else.  I’m also not sure about the songs “Delete You” and “Hair” (“I like what you do to my hair…”) as I find them failed attempts at writing songs about something not often sung about (Hair: liking how a love interest messes with one’s hair) or taking advantage of present-day terms (Delete You) in hopes that it will be catchy (they’re not). “How Do You Love Someone” also lacks a certain amount of authenticity reflected less by Tisdale’s execution of the song but more so by her mainstream persona.  The song calls to lessons never provided by parental figures and Ms. Tisdale’s Disney-fied image doesn’t quite fit the mold.
